An amazing NW DC neighborhood with one of DC's best public schools. It is a fairly wealthy neighborhood so after attending the best public elementary school kids tend to go to elite private schools such as the National Cathedral Schools. Despite this, they have a strong sense of community supported by the small family businesses and restaurants.

PALisader 1: *sigh* lets just go to The Boathouse!
